Chapter 44 Cao Cao withdraws his troops from Xuzhou!
It is said that Lu Bu and his party of eight horsemen rushed straight towards the Cao army, and suddenly there was an angry roar from the Cao army, "Who are you waiting for?" We are on the order of Cao Envoy Jun to crusade against Lu Bu and others, but you are under Lu Bu's command, quickly dismount and surrender! ”
"Surrendered?" Lu Bu looked up to the sky and smiled, and roared, "I am Lu Fengxian of Bingzhou!" Who can take my last name? ”
"You're Lu Bu?" The Cao general was stunned for a moment, and then said with great joy, "Haha, you are Lu Bu?" I'll take your head and get credit from Mr. ”
"What a big breath!" Lu Bu sneered and stepped forward, stabbing at the Cao general with a halberd, but the Cao general tried his best to block it.
Lu Bu smiled and said, "How? Do you dare to say anything more about my head?! ”
"Why don't you dare!" The Cao general shouted, waved his gun and shouted, "Lu Fengxian, don't be arrogant, I am Xiahoudun, the general under Cao Yuanjun!" ”
Lu Bu used the halberd with one hand to block Xiahoudun's onslaught, and when he looked back, he saw that Zhang Liao and the others were dragged by countless Cao soldiers, and said lightly, "I won't play with you today, quickly get out of the way, let me wait to pass!" ”
"Delusional!" It was the first time that Xiahoudun had encountered such a strong opponent as Lu Bu, and he couldn't hurt him even by half a point if he used all his strength.
"Humph!" Lu Bu sneered, and was about to step forward to cut Xiahoudun, when suddenly he caught a glimpse of countless crossbowmen in Cao's army out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly his heart sank, and he swung Xiahoudun's spear, turned around and entered the encirclement and shouted, "Gentlemen, go quickly!" ”
When the generals under Lu Bu's command saw Lu Bu return in person, they were grateful in their hearts, and shouted in unison, "The lord goes first, and I will come later!" ”
"Good!" Lu Bu was quite heroic at this time, looking at thousands of Cao troops with cold eyes, and killing a bloody way.
Xiahoudun watched Lu Bu and the others fight their way out of the encirclement, his eyes were full of anger, and he was about to chase after him, when suddenly hundreds of soldiers rushed out of the mountain, looking at his dress, as if he was under Lu Bu's command.
Is it a trick? Xiahoudun immediately ordered to stop the pursuit and waited solemnly.
Lu Bu originally saw that Xiahoudun was chasing closely, and wanted to turn around and kill for a while, letting Zhang Liao and the others go first, but he didn't want the hundreds of soldiers who came out of the mountain to make him stunned.
"Gongxiao ......" Looking at the general who stood like a banner, Lu Bu could recognize who it was with his eyes closed, Gao Shun and Gao Gongxiao......
"Who's coming?" Xiahoudun roared vigilantly, and waved his hand to order the soldiers under his command to prepare for battle.
Not wanting Gao Shun to glance at Xiahoudun lightly, he turned to Lu Bu and shouted, "Lu Fengxian! Now is the last time I will help you, and he said that if we meet on the battlefield, you and I don't have to show mercy! ”
"Gongxiao ......" remembered that when he was in Bingzhou, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Ah Xiu and the four of them were together, but now they ended up in this situation, Lu Bu sighed in his heart, hugged his fists and said, "Gongxiao!" Even if I, Lu Bu, made many mistakes before, I hope that my filial piety will not be held against me in the future......"
"If you hold a grudge, I won't come to save you!" Gao Shun showed a slight smile on his indifferent face, and said in a deep voice, "Take care!" ”
"Take care......" Lu Bu muttered, glanced at Gao Shun hesitantly, and rode away with all his heart.
"Damn!" Xiahoudun watched Lu Bu get away, and ordered angrily, "These are also under Lu Bu's command, and you will kill the enemy with me!" ”
"Wait!" Gao Shun finally ignored Xiahoudun's words, and slowly walked over in Xiahoudun's stunned eyes.
Xiahoudun looked at Gao Shun in amazement, and went straight to his horse, and said, "Take me to see Jiang Zhejiang Shouyi!" ”
Xiahou glanced at Gao Shun suspiciously, and asked, "You and Mr. are old acquaintances?" ”
Gordon waved his hand to let his subordinates put down their weapons, turned back to Xiahoudun and said, "I am Brother Jiang Fujun......
"......" I saw Xiahoudun open his mouth wide open, with an unbelievable expression, but seeing that the soldiers under Gao Shun's command had indeed put down their weapons, Xiahoudun couldn't help but believe it.
"Let's go! When you see Jiang Shouyi, you will naturally understand everything! Gao Shun said lightly, ignoring Xiahoudun, Gu Zi rode his horse to Xuchang.
Looking at Gao Shun's indifferent and arrogant appearance, if it were someone else, he would have been shot by Xiahoudun as a military merit, but when he heard that it was Mrs. Jiang's brother, recalling Jiang Zhe's smiling face, Xiahoudun suddenly felt that his right hand was a little sore......
"Take those weapons and armor, I'll wait and go to Xuchang!"
Didn't Xiahoudun follow Cao Ying to attack Xuzhou? Why is it here? This starts with half a month ago......
When Cao Ying's 50,000 soldiers attacked Xuzhou, the momentum was so strong.
Wu has Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Yu Ban and other generals, Wen has Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai and other strategists, but more than ten days can not capture Xuzhou, not even the Xuzhou city wall......
I have to say that Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian still won the hearts of the people, and the people all helped him, and he refused Cao Ying from Xuzhou.
When he first arrived in Xuzhou, Xi Zhicai had planned to lead the troops of Xuzhou to attack the Cao army camp, and many soldiers were ambushed around the Cao camp earlier, but he did not expect that at noon on the second day, there was no movement in Xuzhou.
When I went to attack the city again, I heard a person laughing on the city wall, "This plan is too shallow, and I can see through it!" ”
Cao Ying asked left and right, who is this person, and left and right said, "It's Chen Yuanlong, a famous man in Xuzhou......"
So Cao Ying's face was depressed, and Xi Zhicai drank embarrassedly.
Guo Jia was overjoyed when he saw the hunt, and wanted to try the ability of this Jiang Zhe's 'student', so he offered a plan to Cao Ying.
It turned out that the city wall of the north gate of Xuzhou was in disrepair for a long time, and it suffered another Yellow Turban siege, and the city wall was corrupted, so Guo Jia offered a plan to attack the east and the west......
Fake attack on the east gate, but the real picture of the north gate......
Unexpectedly, Cao Ren was ordered to sneak attack that night, and before he could rejoice when he entered the north gate, he was greeted by a burst of bows and crossbows, using Jiang Zhe's three-stage method......
So Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai grabbed the wine and drank......
Could it be that the reputation of Yingchuan Liuyou is going to be folded here? Xun Yu thought about it hard, and suddenly heard that countless grain trucks in Xuzhou had been intercepted, and he suddenly had a plan in his heart......
The grain and grass were not moved, but the 800 soldiers who transported the grain were all replaced by elite soldiers under Cao Ying's command......
As soon as Chen Deng calculated the time, he felt that it was wrong, so he asked those Cao soldiers who were pretending to be grain carriers why they came so late, and whether they had met Cao Jun on the way.
According to Xun Yu's description, Cao Bing said, "The car broke its wheel, and there was no ...... Cao Jun on the road."
Chen Deng was almost deceived by this answer, and reminded each other of a joke that Jiang Zhe had told him before, summoned twenty 'grain transport soldiers', separated them, and asked a question......
"Are the wheels on the left or the right side of the road that you are waiting for?"
So all 800 Cao soldiers sank......
Xun Yu was puzzled and ashamed and went with Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai and others......
Cao Ying couldn't cry and laughed, and said, "All the monarchs are Wang Zuozhi's talents, but now they don't have any plans? ”
"Yes!" The three of them all nodded, looking at Cao Ying's happy face, and they said again, "It's just that I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future......
Cao Ying paused, and suddenly said, "Let's talk about it!" ”
Guo Jia's eyes flashed, and he said, "Dig up water and flood Xuzhou!" ”
Cao Ying opened his mouth and looked at Xi Zhicai, who smiled coldly and said, "Drive the people of Xuzhou in front, and I will wait behind!" Xuzhou will be broken! ”
"yes...... It will be broken, but after that, it will be the persecution of righteousness......" Cao Yu shook his head and looked at Xun Yu, Xun Yu hesitated for a moment, and said, "Yu's plan is the ......same as the two of them."
Cao Ying suddenly felt a headache, is there no way to take down Xuzhou without hurting the righteousness of the innocent province?
As he was talking, suddenly the soldier came to report, saying that Liu Xuande of the plain had a letter to hand over to the lord.
Cao Ying frowned, took a closer look at Liu Bei's letter, and suddenly said angrily, "Who is Liu Bei, dare to persuade me with a book!" And there is irony in the middle! ”
Guo Jia stretched out his hand to ask for the letter and looked at it, his eyes lit up and said, "The plan has been accomplished!" The lord should answer with good words, slow the heart of Xuzhou, and then march to attack the city, and the city can be broken. ”
Xi Zhicai also shook his head and said, "The lord can say to him, and make a boycott of the war, but there is not enough food in the army, if you want me to retreat, send some food quickly!" When it delivered the rice grain, it quickly captured Xuzhou! ”
Xun Yu smiled slightly and said, "The lord can even mention Shouyi to Liu Bei, and Shouyi has something to do with Chen Yuanlong, so as to have the heart of Xuzhou!" ”
"Good plan, good plan!" Cao Ying looked at the strategists under his command, and sighed secretly in his heart, it is really a blessing to have the help of these heroes...... And Shouyi is also under his own banner......
Just when Cao Ying was happy in his heart, suddenly a soldier hurriedly came and knocked on the ground to report, reporting that Zhang Miao and Chen Gong led 30,000 people to attack Yanzhou, and Lu Bu and Guo Gong 30,000 people attacked Xuchang!
Cao Ying was taken aback, and said anxiously, "The two places have lost, making me homeless, and Shouyi, Zhongde, and Gongda are all here, so I can't help but try it!" ”
So Cao Ying immediately summoned the generals, during which Guo Jia offered a plan, "Yanzhou and Xuchang are far away from Xuzhou, and they can't be reached in the short term, so it is better for the lord to send a general to attack the rule of Guo Gong in Yuzhou, a general to attack Dongjun, and a general to attack Chen Liu......"
"Wei Wei's plan to save Zhao......" Xi Zhicai smiled slightly, and said with his wine bag in his hand, "This plan is feasible!" ”
It's just that Xun Yu frowned and said, "The lord should only allocate 30,000 soldiers to Shouyi, and I don't know ......."
While he was talking, another soldier came to report.
Cao Ying took a closer look, and vaguely remembered that it was a soldier from Xuchang, looking at him covered in blood, Cao Ying was suddenly shocked.
Don't...... Do you keep righteousness......
Xun Yu looked at Cao Ying's lost soul on his face, and asked the soldier, "What are you here to report?" Hurry up! ”
"Yes!" The soldier replied and said slowly, "Earlier, Mr. Xu Changjiang learned that Zhang Miao Chen Gong was attacking Yanzhou, and he urgently sent 20,000 soldiers under his command to Yanzhou, and obeyed Cheng to engage in dispatching ......."
"Twenty thousand?" Cao Ying muttered, "That'...... Isn't there only 10,000 soldiers under Shouyi's command? 10,000 soldiers guarding Xuchang? Shou Lu Bu Lu Feng first? ”
Xun Yu looked at Cao Ying and shook his head, and said to the soldier, "Go on!" ”
“…… Be! Later, Lu Bu led the troops, Mr. Jiang listened to Li Zhi's plan, carried out the policy of clearing the wilderness, and moved most of the people outside Xuchang into Xuchang, so that Lu Bu had no food to take, and no one was available, and then Lu Bu led the army to attack Xuchang, and Mr. Jiang took the lead and died ......"
"Dead?" Cao Ying's eyes suddenly widened, and he said angrily, "Could it be that he died in battle?" Lu Fengxian! I, Cao Mengde, are inseparable from you! I won't kill you......"
“…… Fight to the death to save Xuchang ......"
"......" Cao Ying's face was still angry, and he opened his mouth in embarrassment, looking at Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu's stunned eyes, coughed and said with some shame, "You can't finish it all?" I only ask you! Can righteousness be kept? Xuchang is available? ”
The Cao soldier was taken aback by Cao Ying, and hurriedly said, "Here!" At! It's all there! ”
"That's good! That's good ......" Cao Ying breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had put down a boulder in his heart, Jiang Zhe was not only a relationship between the top and bottom, but a confidant, but a rebel, and the friendship was deeper than any of the other six friends in Yingchuan......
Guo Jia smiled and said, "Jia is not worried about Shouyi, but he is a little worried about Zhongde, I heard that Chen Gongtai is also a celebrity, if he is in charge of the army, I am afraid that Zhongde will not be able to please ......"
Cao Ying nodded and ordered to the generals, "Miaocai! You are good at attacking from afar, and with your 5,000 elite soldiers, go to help Zhongde; Zixiao, Zihe (Cao Chun), and you and 10,000 other elite soldiers will capture Dongjun for me and coerce Chen Gong to retreat! Wen Ze, with your 8,000 elite soldiers, you pretend to be 30,000, slowly enter Yuzhou, and let Yuzhou assassin Guo Gong retreat! Yuan Jean! With your 5,000 elite soldiers, go to help defend righteousness! ”
"I ...... I'll go? Xiahoudun's eyes widened and he muttered, "If Mr. asks me to copy the book of soldiers again this time, who will catch the knife with me?" ”
Cao Ying glanced at Xiahoudun speechlessly, and shouted heavily, "The generals still don't receive orders?" ”
"Yes! The last will obey! The generals shouted in unison.
"So ......" Xi Zhicai grinned and held Liu Bei's letter between his two fingers, and said with a smile, "It has fulfilled this Liu Bei's ......"
Cao Ying smiled faintly and said, "When you return to Xuchang, let Shouyi hand over the letter to Chen Yuanlong...... Then Chen Yuanlong dared to disrespect his master's order and join his command? ”
Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Xi Zhicai all shook their heads and smiled bitterly, "Good! ”
